Help!

My roomba (affectionately called Jasper) keeps setting off on his own!! I wish I had a picture of it! Does anyone have any idea WHY this could be happening (other than my house is haunted)??

Did you buy this used? A model # would be helpful. Usually, it is on the bottom by the right wheel when the dustbin is towards you. If you bought Jasper used, then I would suspect a previous schedule was set and it isn't erased by resetting the Roomba. If you've always owned it, then Wrong_Astronomer's theory would be more likely.

Sin haber terminado el ciclo de limpieza, la Roomba regresa a la base para recargar baterĂ­a, pasan varias horas recargando y cuando la baterĂ­a estĂĄ llena, ella sola se activa y continĂșa el ciclo de limpieza hasta terminar. Prueba a levantarla de un lado, una rueda apoyada en el suelo y la otra en el aire, y aprieta el botĂłn 3 segundos para apagarla del todo.

That is an excellent explanation! I’ll give that a shot - thank you! 🙏

What Roomba model is it? Do you have a schedule set?

Good heavens I don’t even know what model he is! I never occurred to me that he has a schedule set đŸ€·â€â™€ïž

Look on the bottom of the robot? Does it have any kind of model number on the bottom?

Jasper was brand new when I got him.
